The update comprises a time interval in which the operating system is unavailable and the application performs one or more computations at the particular processor. After the update, the application is restarted.

Abstract: Some embodiments determine automatically which synthesized or otherwise autocreated suggestions for source code editing are presented to developers. Some filter out autocreated coding suggestions that have not been sufficiently endorsed by a developer's team, based on a suggestion trust score. The trust score may reflect the suggestion's adoption in a particular repository or codebase, or affiliation of the suggestion with a library release, or an actual or implied review of the suggestion by team members. Some suggestion filters enhance existing development team code review practices, by offering endorsed suggestions in autocompletion or analysis interfaces of tools and by withholding non-endorsed suggestions from display. Context illustrating the autocreated suggestion's provenance may be displayed to help developers decide whether to adopt the suggestion themselves while editing code.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for supporting patching in a multi-tenant application server environment. The system can associate one or more partitions with a tenant, for use by that tenant, wherein a partition is a runtime and administrative subdivision or slice of a domain. A patching process can take advantage of high-availability features provided by an application server clustering environment, to apply patches in a controlled, rolling restart, which maintains a domain's ability to operate without interruption, or with zero downtime. The process can be used to automate complex or long running tasks, including preserving an unpatched or prior version of an application server, application, or other software component for possible rollback, or providing automatic reversion in the event of an unrecoverable error.

Abstract: The current document is directed to methods and systems that employ call traces collected by one or more call-trace services to generate call-trace-classification rules to facilitate root-cause analysis of distributed-application operational problems and failures. In a described implementation, a set of automatically labeled call traces is partitioned by the generated call-trace-classification rules. Call-trace-classification-rule generation is constrained to produce relatively simple rules with greater-than-threshold confidences and coverages. The call-trace-classification rules may point to particular services and service failures, which provides useful information to distributed-application and distributed-computer-system managers and administrators attempting to diagnose operational problems and failures that arise during execution of distributed applications within distributed computer systems.
